Re:Oh so what. (Score 1)

While most of your points are valid, one is not. At a private university the *campus* police do not need warrants. You are living on the University's private property and they can do as they wish. Including search your room. I know at my school that's written into the room contract. They don't do it except when there's a real reason, but they do have the right. Just as a University does not have to grant you your 1st amendment rights if it is a private institution. Its like your job, the difference is you're a customer of theirs. They can create any rules they like.
